Chapter 274: Chapter 272: Be More Behaved from Now On_1

Mu Yingchen heard her little grumbling and suddenly curved the corners of his mouth upward. This woman, she’s still so adorable...

"It’s not your fault..." He knew just how heavy the knot in his mother’s heart was and how persistent she was.

Upon hearing Mu Yingchen’s words, Su Wanxia immediately pursed her lips, "Then why do you look so stern... I thought you were mad at me..."

Mu Yingchen raised his eyebrows and let out a helpless chuckle, "If you know I’m mad, be a bit nicer in the future..."

He wasn’t really angry at all, he was just considering whether to pull this woman aside and get the certificate sorted first, to prevent her from running away every time she got upset.

Perhaps he was too absorbed in his thoughts, not speaking or showing any emotion, which led her to mistakenly think he was angry...

After listening to Mu Yingchen, Su Wanxia suddenly felt uncomfortable. What did he mean by telling her to be a bit nicer? Those were the exact words she used on Shanshan...

As she was internally complaining about Mu Yingchen’s behavior, Shanshan had already found a chance to chime in, giggling, "Daddy... when I make Mommy mad, that’s what she says to me."

Su Wanxia’s face turned instantly red. This little girl, she had to say something unhelpful, didn’t she?

Hearing Shanshan’s words, Mu Yingchen laughed softly, "Then both of you be a bit nicer from now on, okay?"

"Mmm... okay..." Shanshan nodded eagerly, then turned to Su Wanxia, who was already speechlessly looking to the heavens, and said, "Mommy... from now on, we both have to listen to Daddy."

The smile on Mu Yingchen’s face deepened. That little girl’s words had really hit the spot.

Meanwhile, Su Wanxia looked at this little sellout with lines of exasperation on her face, snarling, "Be nice... no, you two need to listen to me."

Shanshan immediately blinked her eyes in confusion and turned to ask Mu Yingchen, who was in the driver’s seat.

"Daddy... Mommy says we both have to listen to her..."

Mu Yingchen’s shoulders were clearly shaking with suppressed laughter, "Well... that’s fine too. Daddy is very obedient anyway. You... just need to be even nicer..."

Shanshan looked pitifully at her daddy and mommy, her tender little face scrunched up into a little bun.

It was originally Daddy who had to be nicer to Mommy, so why did it keep coming back to her being nicer? She felt she was already very nice!

Su Wanxia looked at her simple and adorable Little Tuanzi, then reached out to pat her little head, saying softly, "You’re nice..."

Shanshan was utterly sulky, pursed her lips back and forth but didn’t voice her thoughts. Be a bit nicer, then, she would be a bit nicer, after all, pretending to be cute was no trouble for her...

Su Ran drove cheerfully, with Jian Manhui seated behind him, feeling extremely irritable.

Jian Manhui didn’t know what sins she had committed in a past life to encounter such a shameless man; he was like a dogged piece of sticky candy, impossible to shake off!

"Why go back so early?" Su Ran thought he had nothing to do that afternoon and might as well take this woman for a stroll...

Fearing that he might have something up his sleeve, Jian Manhui spoke somewhat rigidly, "I have a lot to do when I return. There’s a case going to court on Monday, and I need to prepare..."

Su Ran was somewhat skeptical, "Really?"

Jian Manhui rolled her eyes. Whether it was true or not, what was it to him? Yet, for some reason, she still spat out two words hatefully, "It’s true."

"That’s just perfect. I’ve had a little dispute with someone recently. While you’re at it, help me analyze it too..." Su Ran’s tone was casual.

The corners of Jian Manhui’s mouth twitched fiercely. Was he doing this on purpose to mess with her? It was so obvious that she didn’t want to stay with him, why did he keep clinging to her...

Upon arriving at their destination, Su Ran skillfully parked the car and then followed the already-entering Jian Manhui toward the elevator.

Jian Manhui rubbed her temples in frustration. Just as the elevator doors opened, she stepped in with an agitated stride.

Su Ran also entered with a smile on his face. Jian Manhui couldn’t stand his grin that was neither here nor there, and said irritably, "What dispute are you talking about?"

Because they were the only two in the elevator, Su Ran raised an eyebrow and leaned slightly towards Jian Manhui, who immediately frowned in displeasure, "Just spit it out!"

Su Ran chuckled, "A love dispute..."

Upon hearing the four words that came out of Su Ran’s mouth, Jian Manhui rolled her eyes at him. Such a hypocrite!

"Aren’t you going to ask who I had the love dispute with?"

"Have it with whomever you want!"

Jian Manhui had just finished speaking when the elevator "dinged," and she hummed softly, stepping out.

Su Ran raised his eyebrows, somewhat surprised by the figure walking out of the elevator. Could it be that she was jealous?

With this realization, Su Ran’s heart suddenly lightened, and he walked out with the corners of his mouth hooked up.

After opening the door, Jian Manhui didn’t even look back at Su Ran following her. She kicked off her shoes upon entering, as if those few words about a love dispute from Su Ran had indeed affected her...

Following her in, Su Ran waited for Jian Manhui to put on her slippers, then he stretched out his hand, pulled her into a corner, and closed in...

Jian Manhui looked at Su Ran, who was behaving unusually, and catching a glimpse of the mischievous smile on his lips, her heart skipped a beat.

"What... what are you trying to do?" She stammered, feeling her heart race in the presence of a man for the first time. The sensation was unfamiliar yet somehow also known to an adult woman, but it made her uneasy, even a bit disgusted, resistant...

Su Ran, looking at the woman who was finally showing some nervousness, smirked even more wickedly before whispering to her, "I like a woman, but what should I do if she doesn’t like me?"

After hearing his words, Jian Manhui somehow related them to herself. When she realized what she was thinking, she suddenly pushed away Su Ran’s hands propped against the wall and spat out two words with a sense of guilt, "How boring!"

She then walked towards her study, meanwhile muttering to herself that she must have had a misconception. How could she feel nervous about him? It was definitely a misconception!

Su Ran watched the person who seemed to be running away in a panic, his smile deepening...

When Mu Yingchen returned to the East District Villa with his wife and child, it caught everyone off guard...

Su Wanxia looked at the familiar courtyard before her, and a surge of sorrow welled up from deep within. There were too many memories of her and him here: sad ones, grievous ones, happy ones, beautiful ones... So many.

Suddenly, she felt like crying, not understanding why achieving happiness was so difficult when their relationship had been through so much joy and sorrow. If they were destined to meet and know each other, why couldn’t they be granted the fortune to love each other till old age?
